- Summary:
- "From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller This Town, the eyewitness account of how the GOP collaborated with Donald Trump to transform Washington's "swamp" into a gold-plated hot tub--and a onetime party of rugged individualists into a sycophantic personality cult"-- Provided by publisher.
- In the early months of Trump's candidacy, the Republican Party's most important figures were united in their scorn and contempt. Then, awkwardly, Trump won. Leibovich tracks what the politicos did to preserve their place in the sun-- and it turns out they would do almost anything. Trump's savage bullying created a dangerous culture of submission in the Republican Party. This led to a country truly unhinged from reality-- and to the events of January 6th, 2021. -- adapted from jacket
